About Caitlin
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Tennessee with 5 years of experience. Caitlin Merritt focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, parenting challenges, trauma and related issues. She practices with practical, goal-oriented methods and integrates several therapeutic approaches to fit each person's needs.
Caitlin uses a solution-focused, interactive style. Sessions often include talking through immediate problems, setting small goals, and trying concrete strategies between meetings. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify thinking patterns and on psychodynamic ideas to look at longer-standing patterns that shape behavior. Trauma-focused work is used when past events are affecting daily life.
Her background includes a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and hands-on experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings. That variety gives familiarity with short-term crisis work and longer-term therapy. The LPC credential is noted first as Licensed Professional Counselor and then as LPC in later mentions.
In sessions she and the client build practical steps for change. This can mean experimenting with new coping strategies, practicing communication skills, or reframing unhelpful thoughts. Progress is tracked with clear goals and regular check-ins so people know what to expect.
She also works with concerns linked to adoption and foster care, body image, career and mood disorders. People who speak English can work with her, and she does not take international clients at this time. To begin, follow the site process to match and schedule an initial appointment.

How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and collaborating. The therapist follows the client’s concerns and adjusts conversation to what matters most, which helps with stress, relationship issues, and parenting challenges.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Online sessions can include working through specific exercises, setting small goals, and reviewing progress between meetings to address anxiety, depression, and mood problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and make adjustments over time in a collaborative way.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Discussing practical needs up front helps choose session length and frequency that fit everyday life.
